The Philippines' Taal Volcano near the capital region has erupted, spewing a plume of steam that was more than 2 km (1.24 miles) high, the seismology agency said on Wednesday. Taal, located about ...
Taal Volcano in Batangas, Philippines began to erupt on January 12, 2020, when a phreatomagmatic eruption from its main crater spewed ashes over Calabarzon, Metro Manila, and some parts of Central Luzon and Ilocos Region, resulting in the suspension of school classes, work schedules, and flights in the area, as well as temporarily drying up Taal Main Crater Lake and destroying Vulcan Point, an ...
The state volcanology and seismology institute said it observed upwelling of hot volcanic fluids in the Taal volcano's crater lake, resulting in the emission of volcanic gases. Located in a scenic ...
Smog containing gases from a restive Philippine volcano sickened dozens of students and prompted 25 towns and cities to shut their schools on Friday as a health precaution, officials said. There ...
Taal Volcano (IPA:; Tagalog: Bulkang Taal) is a large caldera filled by Taal Lake in the Philippines. [1] Located in the province of Batangas about 50 kilometers (31 mi) south of Manila, the volcano is the second most active volcano in the country with 38 recorded historical eruptions, all of which were concentrated on Volcano Island, near the middle of Taal Lake.

The corridor is home to several active volcanoes, including Taal Volcano, one of the most active volcanoes in the Philippines. [2] The tectonic setting of the Macolod Corridor is complex and not fully understood. Several models have been proposed to explain its formation, but no single model is universally accepted.
The lake fills Taal Volcano, a large volcanic caldera formed by very large eruptions between 500,000 and 100,000 years ago. It is the country's third-largest lake, after Laguna de Bay and Lake Lanao. Volcano Island, the location of Taal Volcano's historical eruptions and responsible for the lake's sulfuric content, lies near the center of the lake.
Taal Volcano Main Crater Lake (IPA:; or simply Main Crater Lake [3]), historically known as Yellow Lake, [4] is a lake inside the main crater of Taal Volcano. The origin of the lake is uncertain but is thought to have formed by rainwater. The lake briefly disappeared after the 2020 eruption of Taal Volcano. [5] [6]
